Posted November 02, 2011 on AP on Fox
The New York Mets have settled with a woman whose back was broken when another fan tumbled onto her in the stands in the former Shea Stadium, court records show. Ellen Massey's case against the Mets, a beer concessionaire and the plummeting spectator was settled last month, according to court records. Court files don't detail the terms. Massey lawyer Joshua D. Kelner and Brian O'Connor, who represented falling fan Timothy Cassidy, would say only that the case was ''resolved.'' Mets lawyer Carla Varriale declined to comment. Cassidy plummeted onto Massey from about five rows of seats above her during the Mets' 2007 opening day game against the Philadelphia Phillies, according to court papers and her lawyers. Massey, an attorney herself, was hospitalized with spinal injuries for about two weeks, her attorneys said. Massey said the 200-pound-plus Cassidy was noticeably drunk and punchy - slurring the cheer ''Let's go, Mets!'' and trying to start fights with other fans in the stands ...

The agenda-driven healthcare flick is helping unrelated advertisers promote their own agendas.
Michael Moore's new documentary film "Sicko" is generating a lot of buzz online and off, but the agenda-driven healthcare flick is also helping unrelated advertisers promote their own agendas.
Web searches for "Sicko" result in a gaggle of sponsored links to video sites presenting related clips or the movie trailer, ringtones featuring tunes from a band that goes by the same name, and unrelated ads for a sale on bras.
But a Google search conducted on Friday -- the movie's opening day – also prompted paid links for an AIDS-related blog, a vertical health search site and a business magazine. The Shillfactor, a blog focused on "less drug intensive approaches to treating HIV," used keyword "Sicko" to target a message to AIDS physicians and promote its own content. "Shillfactor to AIDS docs: It's time to come out--again. Open your books so we can see," read the ad.
Both the Moore film and the blog, written by activist Mike Barr, have gripes with the pharmaceutical industry, making the two a fitting ad couple.
Vertical health search site RightHealth is also glomming on to the timely search term. The tongue-depressor-in-cheek ad copy notes, "Get well-O. Learn more about taking control of your health." RightHealth.com is operated by a firm called Kosmix, which also runs RightAutos, RightTrips for vacation-related information, as well as politics, finance and video games search sites.
Kosmix began its Sicko-targeted campaign on Google and Yahoo last Wednesday, according to Shernaz Daver, head of marketing for the firm. The company expects the film's PR efforts to prompt related searches, and in turn drive traffic to RightHealth. "People who are disappointed with healthcare are coming to the Web, so why not take advantage of that?" said Daver.
Advertisers from political candidates to auto dealers have learned that buying keywords affiliated with opponents' names or rival brands can make for an easy form of so-called "conquesting." In deploying its Sicko-based search campaign, recently-launched print and online publication The American Magazine is implementing what amounts to issue-based conquesting, or running an ad in a forum dedicated to a competitor.
The publication, produced by right-leaning think tank American Enterprise Institute, is buying the keyword "Sicko" in an effort to promote the new business magazine. The ad refers to the film as "short on truth" and links to an article alluding to "Michael Moore's penchant for agitprop."
"The odds are good that whoever it is doing that search is someone who may appreciate our publication," said the magazine's Managing Editor, David Robinson. "We're trying to get out there and reach these influencers, these thought-leading individuals."
The bulk of the magazine's ad budget goes towards search advertising, said Sam Schulman, publishing director of The American. Schulman said he often "grabs a keyword or two" related to timely themes also covered in the magazine in an ongoing effort to drive awareness of the new publication among the media and potential readers.
Hanging those search campaigns on names of brands or people can act as a catch-all for ideas that might be more difficult to express otherwise. "Sicko is a product, and yet it's an issue-based product," said Schulman, noting the movie moniker acts as shorthand for all things healthcare. "It's a Google AdWords dream," he said, "It pulls it all right in."

I'm off this morning for my annual cancer tests. Haven't eaten since midnight yesterday, If Sherelene doesn't keep me locked in the car I might attack a McDonalds. I'm so hungry I might even eat an egg, and I hate eggs! I taught a workshop last night with Jim Begley at my church and the group seemed overly concerned about my tests, if they know something I don't know, it beats me. A lady asked me if I was concerned having had such bad news from former tests? I really don't think about that very much. My life is in God's hands, has always been. When I was diagnosed with terminal cancer 31 years ago, He saw me through it. When it's time, it's time. I'm not a fatalist, I just know who has my back.
I write my entries in the hopes that someone that doesn't know Him will meet Him here. I was laying in bed this morning and the thought came to me, what if this entry were the last I ever got to write, what would I say? It would be titled; "The No Risk, Limited Time Offer….."
If you answer the knocking at your hearts door, there is no risk, and the only time we have to open that door is while we are still here. Pretty simple proposition………. and one I hope you will consider.

For every problem there is a solution and in photography I've found a number of solutions from Kirk Enterprises! At the most recent Photo Plus I got a chance to visit their booth and catchup with old friends, I also saw some products I didn't know I needed, but now own!!! First, I've gotten a ton of emails asking about the Low Pod I used in the Close-Up Classes on Kelby Training, well here it is below:
This is the latest version of the Low Pod made by Kirk Enterprises. It is great stable platform for doing close-up work in the field or in the studio. It runs around $150. and then you add the ball head of your choice.
Another item that really works for me is the Super Grip, that allows an affordable package for doing video work hand held with DSLRs. This one is show with my D7000, 85 Micro lens, and Nikon's Me-1 Microphone. Another 1/4″ 20 thread adapter is available to add a out board video monitor. This rig makes it easier to do video with a DSLR and move it steadily. Many other manufacturers make rigs costing up to $3,000. and above, for my money this unit with all the attachments comes in under $200.! Quite a deal!
When doing video with a small compact camera, I love the Nikon Coolpix P7100 for hand held video work the Quick Release Grip from Kirk works great. At $80. it's a steal for much improved video.
I love to work with small cameras but always want to have a good solid support and for cameras like my Coolpix P7100 and my Nikon D7000 the Table Top Tripod legs from Kirk and the BH-30 Compact Ball Head from Really Right Stuff make a dynamite combination. I love this system for working low and for supporting cameras when you can use a full sized tripod. This unit can be held against a wall for extra steady support when shooting from standing height! The Table Top Tripod legs run $119. and the ball head from RRS goes for $275. It may sound like a lot of money but both are made so well they are life-time investments.
I use a number of different Coolpix cameras and having the right Arca Swiss type plate for each one has becoming madenning, until now, the little PZ-130 fits my P7100, my Nikon J1 and my Nikon P300, it's a great way to have any of my small cameras ready to hook-up with any Arca Swiss device. $30. from Kirk.
Another field problem is how to carry long lenses? If you use your cameras neck strap to support your camera and a long lens you will very likely end up with a bent lens mount on the camera or lens, and expensive repair. If you insist on using a strap be sure it is one attached to the long lens, NOT the camera. Kirk has a device that makes hand carrying a long lens and body a snap, it's called Action Grip and I love how it works and then balances the lens for hand held shooting. It runs $125. and fits any Arca Swiss design plate.
For many years Mike Kirk, founder of Kirk Enterprises, was a good friend and his son Jeff and his gang including Kevin Crist have continued on his great work. I really love their products and am always excited when they come with new solutions to photographers problems. I have also loved working with Joe and Joan of RRS, they too have made us some great products!

I got home early this morning from the Breeder's Cup, tired but glad to be home, I went up stairs to my office to put away my gear and threw my latest hat on the pile, standing there looking at the display of my hats, I thought they each tell a story. Before I start, it's Sunday morning and this is my devotional for the morning. If a Genie had popped out of a lamp when I was young and offered me any three wishes I wanted I would have asked for exactly what I've gotten! More about that at the end! Every place I've traveled I've bought a baseball cap as a reminder of that great experience, funny thing is I look awful in a baseball hat!!! But, I love to look at my hats of which I have many more than what is displayed above. Allow me to share with you a short description of the ones shown here.
Top row, left to right, America From 500 Feet, my first aviation book done with my son Wesley, one of the greatest experiences of my life, especially the 14 months of traveling with Wes and growing from father and son, into close friends! I never look at that hat that I don't thank God for that time together and all those wonderful flights! Air Creation my one of my first and still favorite ultra lights, and the one Wes and I flew for the first book. The team hat for the second book, America From 500 Feet II. My new 2011 Breeder's Cup hat, last one to go on the pile!
Row two, The Blue Angles, bought at their headquarters in Pensacola! Carolina Nature Photographers Association an organization I'm proud to belong to. The hat I bought after flying over the Corvette Factory in Bowling Green, Kentucky. A favorite burger place in the midwest, decent burger, great hat and nice people that run it.
Row three, CSI Las Vegas, gift form a friend that actually calls on them for Nikon! OOOPs Cozy inn makes a second appearance! My Dive Shop hat from Plantation Florida where I flew over the Crystal River to photograph the Manatees. The original Gore Tex GAPW hat! (Great American Photography Weekend)
Row Four, Arlington Air Show Commemorative Wright Brothers hat, one of my favorite hats to fly in! The hat my late, dear friend, Phil Fox had made to witness during his last months as he bravely battled cancer, when he gave one away people said is this your hat? He said no, it's not my hat or your hat, but His hat and one size fits all! Masters Golf Tournament (I've worked 8), NASA, I've been privileged to photograph five shuttle launches.
Row Five, Midnight Miss III, the name of the T-6 Texan I got to take a ride in! Life is Good, are you kidding look at these hats!!!! Nikon's basic black hat, what a great job this has been! Jeep Camp, bought when my dear friend Rob Shepperd invited me to speak at this event.
Row Six, National Geographic Expeditions, gift from a friend and long time National Geographic photographer. Only You, Smokey the Bear's reminder to us all. Reno Air Races Media Team hat, a treasured gift from a great friend at RENO, from this years race that ended tragically. How great is it to represent a product that has it's own fan club!!??
Row Seven, Ultra Flight magazine, now Sport Flight Magazine for whom I write a monthly column about ultra light flying. Gift from some friends at the SPEED network I got to know at man NASCAR races, Predator, the name of my first Powered Parachute always reminds me of a great ultra light friend Scott Hughes. State Department, Office of Security hat from a good friend in Washington.
Row Eight, FA-22 Raptor, a gift from the photo team at Lockheed Martin, makers of the F22 jet fighter. Getty Images, one of the most successful picture agencies and the home of some of my favorite clients. One of my favorite little restaurants near Zion National Park that serves great home made pies, before you draw the wrong conclusion, the people that made the sign outside the restaurant told the owners Home-Made would not fit so that thought they would be cute and use Ho Made, it has led to lots of wrong conclusions. The hat was a gift from my boss Scott Diussa. A favorite Disney World hat I bought while taking my grandchildren to the Animal Kingdom.
I don't need a Genie to get "wishes" ! My heavenly father has given me the only three things I need or want; (1) His love and forgiveness, (2) the love of wonderful wife and family, and (3) something fun and important, to spend my life doing, and look forward too!
the pilgrim
P.S. I'm still with Nikon!!! Got several emails asking when I left!!! Just was being thankful, the parade goes on……
My favorite hat? How about this one………..

For years I've told a story that I doubt many people believed. In my very early career there was this young photographer, just like me, that worked at the Courier Journal newspaper in Louisville. He was a really talented kid who eventually won a Pulitzer Prize, and was the NPPA Photographer of the Year (National Press Photographers Association). So anyway we knew each other pretty well and one day I got a call form him in a panic. He had been offered an assignment with National Geographic and had never shot color film! He needed to know how to expose for slides! Of course he was an eminently talented shooter and it didn't take much help from me to have him up to speed. He went on to have a wonderful career winning many, many awards and accolades, but he never forgot that I did him one small favor those many years ago.
So today when he dropped by the Nikon area at the Media Center, at the Breeder's Cup he gave me a copy of his latest book, I am the proud owner of several, and this time he was kind enough to make it official in his note! This really isn't bragging, it's more a chance to say that a career is the sum of all it's parts, and both mine and Dan's have been that, we have given as much or more as than what we got, and in the end, when they add it all up, that counts for a lot……..

SALEM (AP) — The Oregon secretary of state's office has made nearly $90,000 in fees over the past five years by selling voter information to political parties and private companies.
The state charges $500 for the voter registration database, far higher than the $7 charged in Washington state or the $30 charged in California. The cost makes the records difficult for the public to access, but for-profit companies have made the purchase, records show.
The database includes each voter's name, address, date of birth and voter history. It doesn't show how anyone voted.
Organizations that buy the database are not supposed to use it for "commercial purposes." But some purchasers are data vendors who sell information to banks, corporations and private investigators.
Secretary of State Kate Brown's office said the law does not define "commercial purposes," and the state relies on complaints about how the information is being used before taking action.

My first glitch video. A bit rough, but I like it.
Eighth Sign
"Beyond the edge of the world there's a space where emptiness and substance neatly overlap, where past and future form a continuous, endless loop. And, hovering about, there are signs no one has ever read, chords no one has ever heard."
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
Following the way
I was in my early twenties, and already well on my way toward building the most complete Eagles related record collection ever attempted in Australia. Well, that's certainly how I felt about the whole project back then, and I was immensely proud of my taxonomic knowledge and time-series awareness with regard to the 'family tree' of all things Eagles.
Linda Ronstadt, Buffalo Springfield, Poco, Firefall, The James Gang, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Byrds, The Session, Randy Newman, John Entwistle of The Who, Joni Mitchell, Dan Fogelberg… just a short list of bands and musicians who cross polinated and shared session musicians. Do session musicians still exist in the popular music scene these days?
But I'm not here to reconstruct my early musical education for you – root, branch and tree. I have a stack of system cards on my coffee table and an Excel spreadsheet for that. Instead, I just want to share a song that has followed me both lyrically and musically through my life, and always speaks to my current state of mind and perceived place in the world, regardless of whether I am feeling up or down.
Children's drawing
As a child, my pencil and crayon drawings were very formulaic. I would typically start with a mountain range and then build a house at the base of it. The house would consist of a square and a rectangle beside each other, a triangle on top of the square, and a parallelogram on the rectangle. The square was where the door went, and two windows went in the rectangle. Around the house I would draw some trees, grass tufts and flowers. Then I would put some birds in the sky and finish it off with a ball of sun in the top right corner with nice straight rays of light pointing at the house.
With this memory in mind, and with my 47th birthday approaching next week, I have reconstructed one of my children's drawings from a few items I found at hand. The result is a bit puzzling to mind, which insists on decoding the whole process and psychoanalyzing myself.
I figure I have either lost my childhood innocence, or I have regained my sense of youthful playfulness. Can both of those things exist together?
How we swallow the sun
The title for this image is borrowed from the lyrics of the song that inspired it.
Runaway by The National.
ubi sunt
Things never possessed mutability
as though that were some kind of quality.
It was just an illusion;
the typically human
Disease of Mind's imputability.

Then, when they get caught, they play victim. It's sickening. And anyone who has a bad word to say at Peter, as though he did ANYTHING wrong can fuck off.

Conversations: Revisiting Martial Law
Latest news
Joker Arroyo, Who Challenged Martial Law in the Philippines, Dies at 88
Joker Arroyo, a politician and lawyer who counseled, bedeviled and helped topple Philippine presidents for more than three decades, died this week in the United States. He was 88.
How the media can help end the debate over martial law
Many of these reports carried the same message: the imperative for Filipinos to never again allow the imposition of authoritarian rule. But some articles that can only be described as trivial and mindless also made it to the pages of the broadsheets, together with interviews with college students who, by claiming that the Marcos regime did the country some if not a lot of good, displayed their appalling ignorance of the period.
Martial Law was just OK?
Lack of awareness of what really happened during Martial Law is alarming. What's more alarming is that there will be no more Philippine history subject in 2016, when the senior high school of the K to 12 program will be implemented in full swing.

Honoring Macli-ing Dulag, defender of the Cordillera
The Chico hydroelectric dam project would have submerged the sacred lands of indigenous peoples near the Chico River—from south of Bontoc in Mountain Province to north of Tomiangan in Tabuk, Kalinga—to provide electricity for the lowlands.

Irritable urological symptoms with gross hematuria and bilateral lumbar pain developed when the patient
received penicillin G for endocarditis. These symptoms were followed by renal insufficiency. A contrast-
enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a thickened bladder wall, bilateral hydroureter
and hydronephrosis, suggesting hemorrhagic cystitis complicated with urinary tract obstruction. Urine culture
was negative. After discontinuation of penicillin G, all symptoms subsided and renal function recovered;
hence, penicillin G seems to have been associated with hemorrhagic cystitis and acute kidney injury. Positive
findings in the drug lymphocyte stimulation test (DLST) for penicillin G were consistent with this diagnosis.
Key words: penicillin G, hemorrhagic cystitis, interstitial nehritis, infectious endocarditis
(Inter Med 48: 1667-1669, 2009)
(DOI: 10.2169/internalmedicine.48.1842)
Interstitial nephritis is a well-known complication of peni-
cillin G and related drugs (1, 2). Hemorrhagic cystitis is a
rare complication of penicillin G, but occasionally causes
kidney injury. Here, we report a patient who developed
hemorrhagic cystitis with urinary tract obstruction during
treatment for endocarditis with penicillin G.
Case Report
A 49-year-old man visited the clinic because of a 2-week
fever with shortness of breath and orthopnea. The findings
of physical examination and chest X-ray suggested conges-
tive heart failure. A pansystolic murmur was heard, most in-
tensely at the apex. Echocardiography revealed severe mitral
valve regurgitation. He was referred to our hospital and ad-
mitted. His temperature was 38.7 degrees Celsius, blood
pressure 126/70 mmHg, pulse rate 116 per minute. The pan-
systolic pericardial murmur was classified as grade 4. The
sudden development of mitral valve regurgitation and two-
week fever of unknown origin were strongly suggestive of
endocarditis, although two sets of blood cultures were nega-
tive and we could not detect vegetation. We began to treat
the patient with penicillin G (4 million units every 4 hours),
gentamicin (180 mg every 8 hours) and diuretics (Fig. 1).
His fever declined soon after starting the antibiotics, fol-
lowed by prompt resolution of congestive heart failure. We
continued only penicillin G at the same dose from the 14th
day of hospitalization. Dysuria and frequent urination devel-
oped from the 16th day, followed by gross hematuria a few
days later. Urinalysis, which had been normal previously,
showed urine protein 3+ and numerous polymorphonuclear
leukocytes. Although no bacteria were found in urine culture
or a Gram stain of the urine sediment, we began tosuflox-
acin 400 mg per day from the 18th hospital day, based on a
presumptive diagnosis of bacterial prostatitis. However, bi-
lateral lumbago developed starting the 20th day of hospitali-
zation. We gave diclofenac 150 mg per day for the pain.
Contrast-enhanced abdominal CT revealed mild bilateral
hydronephrosis, hydroureter, and thickening of the ureteral
wall and bladder wall (Fig. 2). The thickened bladder wall
with irritable urological symptoms was suggestive of cysti-

tis. Under the tentative diagnosis of urinary tract infection
developing from prostatitis, we continued treatment with an-
tibiotics including penicillin G. On the 24th hospitalization
day, serum creatinine had increased from 0.7 mg/dL at the
admission to 4.4 mg/dL. Urine β-2 microglobulin (MG) and
urine N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) had become ele-
vated to 12.8 mg/L and 17.5 IU/L, respectively. Moreover,
we found newly developed eosinophilia (781/μL), and the
drug lymphocyte stimulation test (DLST) for penicillin G
was positive. Based on these findings, it was suggested that
penicillin G might be involved in acute kidney injury (AKI).
We discontinued diclofenac and penicillin G and changed to
linezolid and aztreonam, respectively. After discontinuation
of the former drugs, gross hematuria and lumbago were im-
proved and serum creatinine decreased, reaching 0.91 mg/dL
on the 45th day. We also found that eosinophilia, urine
white blood cells, urine red blood cells, urine β-2 MG and
urine NAG were improved to within the normal range. We
confirmed that hydronephrosis and hydroureter were im-
proved on abdominal CT. After the patient received mitral
valve plastic surgery, he was discharged. About 1 year after
discharge from our hospital the patient was well with nor-
mal urine sediment, no eosinophilia and stable renal func-

In this case, AKI seemed to be due to ureteral obstruc-
tion. Tubulo-interstitial nephritis (TIN) is a well-known
complication of penicillin as a cause of AKI (3). On the
other hand, hemorrhagic cystitis is a quite rare complication
of penicillin. We could find only two case reports which
showed that penicillin could induce hemorrhagic cystitis (4,
5). One of the two cases was reported to be complicated by
AKI as in the present case (5). Although the precise mecha-
nism of toxicity in penicillin-induced hemorrhagic cystitis is
not known, it is possible that penicillin or its metabolites
may directly irritate the bladder and ureter or that immuno-
globulin, which has a cross-reaction to both penicillin and
those tissues, might attack them (6). In the present case, the
immunological reaction to penicillin G was likely involved
in the mechanism, based on the positive finding of DLST
for penicillin G and the increased concentration of eosino-
phils in blood. Severe non-bacterial hemorrhagic cystitis is
known to be induced by viral infection such as adenovirus,
especially in children, and also by some drugs such as cy-
clophosphamide. Viral cystitis might be one of the most im-
portant differential diagnoses. But adenovirus causes hemor-
rhagic cystitis primarily among children, and other viruses
such as BK virus are usually observed in severely immuno-
suppressed patients. Stem cell treatments and solid organ
transplantation can create such conditions (7). The reported
patient was in critical condition, but it was a different condi-
tion from that in reported viral cystitis. As mentioned above,
penicillin G-induced hemorrhagic cystitis is quite rare; there-
fore, we did not consider it as a cause of the symptoms. The
resultant delayed diagnosis might have been associated with
the AKI in this case. We should have changed penicillin G
to an alternative antibiotic soon after the appearance of irri-
table urological symptoms, which were unlikely due to in-
fection. Therefore, it is important to be aware of cystitis as
an adverse effect of penicillin if we encounter the develop-
ment of urological irritable symptoms during penicillin treat-

ETC: Energy-Driven Tree Construction in Wireless Sensor Networks
ABSTRACT Continuous queries in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are founded on the premise of query routing tree structures (denoted as T), which provide sensors with a path to the querying node. Predominant data acquisition systems for WSNs construct such structures in an ad-hoc manner and therefore there is no guarantee that a given query workload will be distributed equally among all sensors. That leads to data collisions which represent a major source of energy waste. In this paper we present the energy-driven tree construction (ETC) algorithm, which balances the workload among nodes and minimizes data collisions, thus reducing energy consumption, during data acquisition in WSNs. We show through real micro-benchmarks on the CC2420 radio chip and trace-driven experimentation with real datasets from Intel Research and UC-Berkeley that ETC can provide significant energy reductions under a variety of conditions prolonging the longevity of a wireless sensor network.

- "Our approach to creating a routing tree with inner-corona balance is motivated by the observation that if every node in the network had the same number of children then the routing tree would be perfectly balanced. This is the idea behind the ETC algorithm proposed by Andreou et al. [18], described in Section 3. The problem is that in a shortest path routing tree constructed over a uniformly distributed network, it is impossible for all nodes to have the same number of children. Macedo analysed the average number of children per parent in such a routing tree and found that the number varies with the corona number [22]. "
Article: DECOR: Distributed Construction of Load Balanced Routing Trees for Many to One Sensor Networks[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Many sensor networks suffer from the energy hole problem which is a special case of load imbalance caused by the funnelling effect of many sensor nodes transmitting their data to a single, central sink. In order to mitigate the problem, a balanced routing tree is often required and this can be constructed with either a centralised or distributed algorithm. Distributed solutions are typically less effective but are significantly cheaper than centralised solutions in terms of communication overhead and they scale better for the same reason. In this paper we propose a novel distributed algorithm for the construction of a load balanced routing tree. Our proposed solution, Degree Constrained Routing, is unique in that it aims to maximise global balance during construction rather that relying on rebalancing an arbitrary tree or only maximising local balance. The underlying principle is that if all nodes adopt the same number of children as each other while the routing tree grows, then the final tree will be globally balanced. Simulation results show that our algorithm can produce trees with improved balance which results in lifetimes increased by up to 80% compared to the next best distributed algorithm.Ad Hoc Networks 05/2014; 16.

- "This happens because our algorithm looks for candidates only in the intersection of its extended floods, whereas GIG looks for candidates inside the whole union of its floods. Below the x-axis the group of [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] candidate is broken down just to show the distribution for our algorithm. "
Article: A novel distributed framework for optimizing query routing trees in wireless sensor networks via optimal operator placement[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this paper, we focus the attention on the operator placement problem in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). This problem is very relevant for in-network query processing over WSN, where query routing trees are decomposed into three sub-components that must be processed at query time, namely operator tree, operator placement assignment scheme and routing scheme. In particular, the operator placement assignment defines on which node of the network each (query) operator will be hosted and executed. Hence, operator placement plays a key role in the context of query optimization issues in WSN research. In line with this main motivation, in this paper we present an optimal distributed algorithm to adapt the placement of a single operator in high communication cost networks, such as a wireless sensor network. Our parameter-free algorithm finds the optimal node to host the operator with minimum communication cost overhead. Three techniques, proposed here, make this feature possible: (1) identifying the special, and most frequent case, where no flooding is needed, otherwise (2) limitation of the neighborhood to be flooded and (3) variable speed flooding and eves-dropping. When no flooding is needed the communication cost overhead for adapting the operator placement is negligible. In addition, our algorithm does not require any extra communication cost while the query is executed. In our experiments we show that for the rest of cases our algorithm saves 30%–85% of the energy compared to previously proposed techniques. To our knowledge this is the first optimal and distributed algorithm to solve the 1-median (Fermat node) problem. A comprehensive experimental evaluation and the proposal of two solutions that are capable of dealing with adaptive properties of the operator placement problem, which is an innovative perspective of research in this scientific field, represent two further contributions of our research.Journal of Computer and System Sciences 05/2013; 79(3):349–368.

Conference Paper: Trading latency for load balancing in many-to-one wireless networks[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Wireless networks that combine a many-to-one traffic flow with multi-hop communication suffer from a funnelling effect that inevitably overburdens nodes closer to the base station. In sensor networks this is known as the energy hole problem. A routing protocol that constructs a shortest path tree exacerbates this problem by leaving some of the most critical nodes with more descendants than others and hence more relaying work to do. In this paper we propose a novel, fully distributed tree construction algorithm for building a load-balanced tree. Our algorithm, Degree Constrained Routing (DECOR), trades off latency for load balancing. We simulated the algorithm using a sensor network as an example. The results show that a small increase in latency, of less than 10%, can be sacrificed for a larger increase in balance of up to 80%. The lifetime of a sensor network using DECOR can be extended by up to 150% compared to the next best algorithm.Wireless Telecommunications Symposium (WTS), 2012; 01/2012

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Biopure Corporation (Nasdaq: BPUR) announced today that it has had discussions with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on identifying an acceptable patient population for a new clinical trial of Hemopure(R) [hemoglobin glutamer - 250 (bovine)], or HBOC-201. Biopure has proposed to study use of Hemopure in patients suffering from Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) who refuse transfusion with blood components. Currently, AML patients who do not accept blood transfusions are unable to undergo potentially life-saving induction chemotherapy because of the profound anemia the chemotherapy causes. Biopure is preparing to submit a protocol for such patients for consideration by FDA. Patients would give informed consent before being enrolled in this study. An effective treatment for this patient population represents an unmet medical need because of an expected 100% mortality within 6 months in the absence of induction chemotherapy. The purpose of the study would be to assess the efficacy of Hemopure in providing an oxygen carrier in lieu of transfusion with red blood cells, as an adjunct to other special procedures, following induction chemotherapy for AML. A successful trial in this population could be pivotal to establish an intended use for Hemopure in this clinical setting.
"We are very excited at the possibility of initiating a new clinical
trial with Hemopure in the U.S. If this trial provides convincing evidence
of benefit in this high mortality population, it has the potential to
become a pivotal trial for Hemopure's use as an adjunct to AML induction
chemotherapy when transfusion with blood components is refused by the
patient," said Zafiris G. Zafirelis, Biopure CEO and Preside

Adam Lambert American Idol
American Idol Season 14 Episode 4 Recap: Welcome to New York
We're heading to the hometown of Jenny from the block on tonight's round of American Idol Season 14 auditions! Welcome to New York!
Since Keith can't be there, Adam Lambert, American Idol Season 8 runner up, has graciously agreed to judge in the hot Aussie's stead.
Adam Lambert Would Love to Judge American Idol
It's the hot American Idol talk making all the rounds and creating all the buzz: Adam Lambert is under serious consideration to be a Season 12 judge.
There's just one problem: this is news to Adam Lambert.
Adam Lambert to Judge American Idol Season 12?
Jennifer Lopez might be out - and a former fan favorite could be in.
With rumors once again swirling around the exit of J. Lo, and with the contracts of all three American Idol judges up, E! News quotes an insider who says Adam Lambert is under consideration as a Season 12 judge.
Adam Lambert Sued for Participating on American Idol
Adam Lambert is facing a lawsuit from a record label that claims he violated his contract by appearing on season eight of American Idol.
Colwel Platinum Entertainment - the same company attempting to release an album of former tracks by Lambert, against the singer's wishes - has filed documents in California federal court that allege Adam was under a Music Services Agreement and a Co-Publishing Agreement when he took the Idol stage.
James Durbin Responds to Adam Lambert Criticism
Early in his American Idol run, James Durbin resented comparisons to Adam Lambert.
Now, the just-ousted finalist resents comments recently made by the former runner-up. In an interview with month with The Hollywood Reporter, Lambert said of Durbin:
American Idol-Off: Adam Lambert vs. Paul McDonald!
Ready for an American Idol-off, readers?
On last night's Motown-themed performance episode of the competition, Paul McDonald covered the Smokey Robinson classic "Tracks of My Tears." The judges loved it, with Randy Jackson gushing: "You're kind of the complete package."
Adam Lambert Goes Acoustic, Inspiring on American Idol
He was introduced by Ryan Seacrest as the person who "truly set the bar for style and spectacle on this stage."
From there, one of the show's all-time favorites toned down his usual performance style, sat on a stool and gave viewers a stripped-down version of "Aftermath," a song with a vital message: You are not alone.

Release Date:
November 2, 2004
When {$Ry Cooder} went to Cuba in 1996 in search of the "deeply funky" rhythms the island had been famous for at mid-century -- {\danzón, bolero, rhumba, son} -- the resulting album, {^The Buena Vista Social Club}, made Grammy-winning, arena-packing superstars of its octogenarian musicians, and cleared the way to international airplay and success for dozens of others. And so it came to pass that northern Europeans flocked to salsa classes, that bartenders in the Midwest began serving up mojitos, that {$Celia Cruz} received a queen's burial; yet the international reputation of the unassuming man who is arguably the island's most influential living recording artist failed to profit much at all from these high years of Cubanismo.
{$Silvio Rodriguez} plays the guitar and sings with the voice of one of its own high strings, pulled perhaps a little tight. Melancholy, sardonic, tender or bemused, his is an organic music, starting with a spare, oddly syncopated bassline, gaining chords and momentum with each go-round. It's a ballad that arrives half-remembered from a bustling coffee house, hemmed in by a crowd of would-be poets, intellectuals, and revolutionaries. You sing along before you even know the words. {$Rodriguez} is a trovador, a folk singer/balladeer. Much has been made of the {\Nueva Trova} movement's leftist political agenda, yet the songs on this acoustic self-titled release are for the most part lullabies and gentle love songs, full of barnacles and constellations and vast {$Whitmanesque} "Song of Myself" lyrical gestures. Recorded between 1992 and 1994 in Havana and dedicated to {$Rodriguez}'s father, who died during this time, it is the artist's most personal and accessible effort, his Ars Poetica.
{$Rodriguez}'s great talent as a lyricist may be one of the reasons that so few people outside of Spanish-speaking circles know his work; and while it's true that foreign listeners will miss the subtle delights of wordplay and metaphor, the raw emotion of {$Rodriguez}'s voice translates perfectly, and the occasional gorgeous misstep (a melody carries on {\a cappella} when the guitar falters, or a silly chorus of childish voices bursts in to temper a bit of ontological excess) has all the charm of freckles or a crooked grin. In a catchy chorus set in the middle of the album and sung clearly enough for Spanish class, {$Rodriguez} insists on the universality of his language of love: "Mi cancion no es del cielo/Las estrellas, la luna/Porque a ti te le entrego/que no tienes ninguna//Mi cancion no es tan solo/de quien pueda escucharla/porque a veces el sordo/lleva mas para amarla." That translates, rather lumpily, as "My song doesn't belong to the heavens, the stars, the moon, because I'm giving it to you who are without one. My song doesn't belong only to the one who can hear it, when a deaf person might have more of what it takes to love it." But listening to {$Rodriguez}'s most engaging music, you knew that already. ~ Jenny Gage, Rovi

God Is Good
God is Truly Amazing! Only a blinded fool would reject the reality of a God Who created the universe. Can you imagine a supernatural being so powerful as to create a universe by the Word of His mouth?
2nd Peter 3:5, "For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water."
God is truly amazing! Do you have any idea how much energy there is in the universe? Just one average sized tree contains enough atomic energy to supply all the electrical power in our nation for 10 years!!

Let Your Light Shine Before Others
Matthew 5:13-16 - King James Version (KJV)
"Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
Let your light shine and inspire and help others. We are to walk in love, not hate. Not one of us is perfect but when you are walking in love it will show! And whether you think so or not, this alone will make a difference! Find your place in God's plan and he WILL guide you. But it all starts with LOVE. Let your light shine brothers and sisters!

Fear Not
The Lord said "fear not" several times throughout the Bible for a reason. He doesn't want His children in a constant state of fear, always feeling as if they are in an uncontrolled helpless situation. The Bible says in 2 Timothy 1:7... For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Trust that whatever the future may hold that you will be okay, and that the Lord will never leave nor forsake you.
If you haven't already done so, we invite you to accept Jesus Christ into your heart today so you can be saved.
Pray similar to the following:
Lord, I am a sinner, and I ask you to forgive me of my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sins. I ask him into my heart, and accept him as my personal Savior. Thank you God for loving me so much, that you would send you Son to die for me. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

My experience with Go-Parts was smooth and convenient. I was able to choose the mirror I needed with no problems for my 2003 mercury mountaineer. And another important factor is the price was right. I had looked other places online and in store and they were by far the most reasonable. I�m talking half off or more in some instances. I would definitely order again thru Go-Parts... a thumbs up from me!
|4.5 / 5 stars
My order was shipped right away and got it within a reasonable amount of time. Would definitely order needed parts from go-part.com again.by toe-b429

I don't remember the exact date of my order, I was out of the country when it got delivered, and it was just as expected. I'll be back if I need more parts, I saved a LOT of money compared to the price my local dealer quoted.by ramct
|4 / 5 stars
I received the parts I ordered in a timely manner depite a snowstorm that delayed the shipper. The price was reasonable. I did find one other place that charged a few dollars less, but i felt more at ease ordering the equipment from Go-Partby 12noisy

I ordered a rear passanger side lap cover for a 1998 Mercedez Benz SUV and recieved the lowest price after two weeks of comparing prices. Highest was the dealership's at $198.00 per cover. Average price about $100.00 per cover. I paid with Go-Part $72.00 after tax and shipping. Recieved my part in about 3-4 days after purchase. Fit perfect!!! Fit better then the original that feel off on the road for no more of a reason then just being an old part. Thanks!!!! I will buy more.by talentdirector..

Some lakes in Indiana and Kentucky still carry warnings for toxic blue-green algae, but recent cooler, drier weather may have helped suppress the potentially dangerous cyanobacteria in many waters, officials said Friday.
All of those lakes are open as the summer recreation season arrives.
Indiana is a basketball state. Kentucky isn't. Hard to swallow isn't it, living this side of the Ohio River?
The Hoosier high school all-star boys swept another pair from its Kentucky Kousins last weekend. Is 13 in a row and 92nd in 134 games dating to 1939. Last time Kentucky won a game in this series, the U.S. government was freezing Osama bin Laden's bank accounts.
Editor's Note: Just 15 minutes after writing this column, I received Bob Watkins' column via email. To my shock, his topic was the same as mine. At first thought, I considered just deleting mine and filling this space with something else. However, on second thought, I figured that any sports fan in Kentucky who values what once made us special, may need a double dose of reality that basketball in Kentucky is not in good health.
More than 40 girls attended the Lady Bears Basketball Camp last week at the high school. The camp was a mix of fun and fundamentals as the girls participated in drills to hone their skills, as well as scrimmages and fun games designed to foster teamwork. Lady Bears' Coach Brandy Scott said she was pleased with the turnout, which was about a dozen more campers than last year. Members of the Lady Bears high school team worked with the campers each day.
The annual Kids Fishing Derby at Taylorsville Lake was held Saturday morning, and while the fish were slow to bite, the fun started early. Fish and Wildlife Officer Scott Herndon said the event is nearly 20 years old and is put on with local support, including prizes donated by the Kentucky Conservation Officers Association and food donated by the Bullitt Co. Rod and Gun Club.
The Spencer County Middle School Track team had a successful season in 2015, with 10 members qualifying for middle school state competition.
McKenzie Bell placed third in the state in the 400- meter dash with a time of 59.64, and third in the 800 meter with a time of 2:26:86.
Lindsey Bush placed 10th in the 1600 meter run with a time of 5:55:84.
Remember a cloudy June day at Grandma's house? Soft rain that caused puddles, not streams. Time on the front porch with enough quiet so we could hear a woodpecker at work? A moment to lift a person to reminisce, let imagination sparkle, and a thought climb to summit of a cluttered priority list.
All serving to make room for: "what can I do right now?" kind of moments.
Rainy days can blend nostalgia and imagination with energy to take to the stairway up top to the seldom opened small door, the attic. Treasure hunt time.
Encounters with young wildlife increase in spring as people spend more time outdoors.
An unattended deer fawn curled up in tall grass. A litter of rabbits discovered alone in the backyard. A baby bird furiously flapping its wings but struggling to get off the ground.
Local gymnists competed at the 2015 AAU District Championship on April 18. The team took first place in the all-around for the second year in a row out of a field of seven other teams.
